The Motorola Moto E 2015 model was recently introduced and the affordable smartphone is already on sale in some regions such as the US. It comes in a 3G-only model as well as a 4G LTE version and is likely to be extremely popular following the success of the first Moto E, especially in countries such as India. If you’re wondering how they compare then we have a Moto E 2nd gen vs. original Moto E in a concise comparison for you to take a look at.

The new Moto E still has an affordable price but one of the big differences is that it now comes in an LTE model. The two different connectivity models vary slightly in specs as the 3G model has a 1.2GHz Snapdragon 200 quad-core processor with Adreno 302 graphics while the 4G LTE variant has a 1.2GHz Snapdragon 410 quad-core processor and Adreno 306 GPU.
